Paris Saint-Germain coach Carlo Ancelotti believes his side could have won last night’s "Le Classique" against Marseille at the Stade Velodrome.
The match ended 2-2, with the top two sides in Ligue 1 having to share the spoils.

And while a draw at Marseille is not a bad result in Ancelotti’s eyes, he still thinks that his side could have handled the occasion better and come away with three points instead of one.
"The result is not bad", Ancelotti told Canal +.
"But I think, after our second goal, we could have won it.
"We did not have a great game, but a good match – nothing special.
"But I think we need to control these types of games better."
The result, with all four goals coming in the first half, leaves Marseille top of the table on 19 points from eight games, while PSG sit second, three points behind.
